Pulitzer prize winning photographer John Moore shares photos from the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic and reflects on his recent work.
John Moore is a senior staff photographer and special correspondent for Getty Images whose work focuses on the issues of immigration and border security in the United States. Documenting from the front lines, his recent work reflects how immigrants continue to be one of the most harshly affected populations during this US coronavirus crisis.
He has photographed in 65 countries on six continents and was posted internationally for 17 years, first to Nicaragua, then India, South Africa, Mexico, Egypt and Pakistan. Since returning to the U.S. in 2008 he has since focused on immigration and border issues.
In March 2018 powerHouse Books published his book Undocumented: Immigration and the Militarization of the United States-Mexico Border. This work represents ten years of Moore’s photojournalism on the issues of immigration and border security in the United States. The goal of the project was to take a comprehensive approach in humanizing the issue of immigration.
